Lemonade is a documentary that features a group of creative minds who were recently let go from their jobs, and the paths that they took to redefine fulfillment in their lives. They looked at their circumstance as a golden opportunity to finally follow the dreams that they’d never had time for. After much self-exploration, these individuals have set forth on roads that are leading to utter happiness and enjoyment of their lives. The liberation that they talk about is an emotion that we all crave, whether we realize it or not. Though unemployment forces us to evaluate our career paths, we should all be keenly aware of the direction we are headed and not simply coast through corporate life thinking a steady salary = happiness.
“Despite the still-dominant survivors’ mentality that you’ve got to hang on to what you’ve got, more and more (and more) people are becoming disenfranchised with careers-as-usual and finding new ways to make lemonade.”
